Customers are saying
Customers are positive about the exceptional sound quality, comfortable fit, and lightweight design of these earbuds, which many users find ideal for smaller ears. While the battery life and open-ear style are also frequently praised, some users have expressed concerns regarding occasional connectivity issues and a maximum volume level that feels too low. Additionally, a small portion of customers feel that the product is priced higher than its overall value.

- Pros mentioned:Comfort
I really wanted to love them.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cons- Phone calls sound like you’re in a wind tunnel and it’s difficult to hear even if you’re inside. If you play your music louder, people next to you can easily hear it. Pros - they are very comfortable and do not come off of your ears.

Posted .I'm glad you like the comfort and stable fit of your Ultra Open Earbuds! At most listening levels, people around you shouldn't hear anything; however, they may do if you use the earbuds at loud volumes in quieter environments. On phone calls, make sure your earbuds are being worn correctly, see here: https://support.bose.com/s/display-articles?productId=01t8c00000OlcI5AAJ&articleId=ka08c000001brKkAAI&language=en_US.

Posted .Hi Ronnie, I'm sorry to hear of your disappointment! Thanks to their OpenAudio technology, the Ultra Open Earbuds are designed to channel rich, high-quality volume into your ears, whilst keeping your ears open to the world around you. If you're having volume issues, make sure your connected mobile device is turned up all the way. Another thing to try is a quick reset of your earbuds, which is done as follows: https://support.bose.com/s/article/ult-headphoneopn-resetting-your-product---ka08c000001bufcaaa?isSessionCreated=true&language=en_US.

Cool concept but lacks in many areas
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Could be an amazing product but definitely for specific users. Calls are so quiet and sound quality just isnt there for me. If you like this form factor i do recommend it. However, for my personal uses i was not impressed.

May Not Fit Large Ears
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It will not fit in my ears. Perhaps the rim of my ears are a bit thicker than average - but not by much. I felt like the buds will not sit correctly in my ears no matter how many times I repositioned them. Unfortunately, these buds only come in one size. So if your ears are a bit larger than average, you may run into the same issue as me. Due to this, the quality of the sound didn't sound to great to me (But I think if they sat in my ear correctly, it probably would've sounded better). I really hope that Bose can make these buds in a larger size - because I was really looking forward to owning them. I decided to return mine.

Posted .Hi Kimm, I'm sorry to hear you returned your Ultra Open Earbuds due to the fit not being quite right. The Ultra Open Earbuds are designed to fit as wide a range of ears as possible, however it is true that fit is subjective from customer to customer. Trying to reposition the earbuds is a good thing to try, and perhaps the following fit guide will also help: https://support.bose.com/s/display-articles?productId=01t8c00000OlcI5AAJ&articleId=ka08c000001pWLKAA2&language=en_US.
